Killian turns 2!

Our little baby turned two this weekend. He is quite the big pup now. In people years he would be 14, so I guess he is a teen. We celebrated with cake a presents :)

The Greatest Spectacle in Racing!

Korey and I were lucky enough to actually attend the Indy 500 this year. We usually are at the track during the race, but not actually inside watching it. This was Korey's first time ever attending the race, needless to say he wants to go every year. He loved it! The race was pretty eventful and it was fun seeing Helio win. Thank Barbara for getting the tickets!

It's a brick...house

O.k. so it was not a brick house, and it was built inside the school. However, still very cool! Mike has been taking a construction class at school for the past semester. In this class they are responsible for building a house from start to finish. This includes everything from building the foundation to putting u[ all the lights and electricity. Mike was in charge of the utility room. The next two weeks will be spent "deconstructing" the house for the next group of eager builders. Great job Mike.

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all the mommy's out there. We are especially thankful for our mothers. We are blessed to have such loving women in our lives. We love you! Mother's Day was spent "at the farm" with my grandma and various aunts, uncles, and cousins. Sadly, Korey had to work, but we missed him dearly! Here are some pictures to document the occasion.
